Good poll for Berg - finally.
Will never understand voting for Romney & a Democrat for senate.
Wondering How many states will Romney win but a Democrat will be elected Senator. Time for Romney to address this?
I guess since Romney leads by 20 RCP considers this a “lean Romney”, right? - sarc
Heller is winning by ten yet he cannot drag Romney over the finish line in NV.
Indeed it is a good poll at last for Berg. That ones in the bag. Time to go back to work securing VA.
Of course, by that reckoning, Reagan should’ve had 98 Republican Senators in 1984. He had 53 (and more than a few were anything but Conservative).
I sent him some money and I voted for him
Heitkamp is a Democrat running to shore up Harry Reid’s Senate.
If Heitkamp wins that is a vote against the XL Pipeline that runs though North Dakota.
“SUPPORT THE XL PIPELINE, BUILD WITH BERG!”
Big GOP oversample, though doubt we will lose.
CF, thoughts?
My parents who live in ND, stated if all the oil people who moved their the last few years vote, it will be a landslide..
Any poll that goes against a demo-rat is criticized as partisan. Of course, this is not the case when polls over sample demo-rats.

I can’t understand it either. Anyone who would caucus with Harry Reid will be an opponent of Romney.
When a Republican is president, the drive by media constantly harps on the concept that people like and want divided government.
When a Democrat is president, you don’t hear word one about divided government.
Exactly!
One state is certain to go big for Romney and reelect it’s rat Senator in a landslide. West Virginia. The rat is “popular” and the Republican candidate is a multiple time loser including losing in 2010 after leading in the polls.
Missouri if Akin loses.
Florida is a possibility. I think Romney will take the state but Mack Jr. may run behind him.
Close contents in VA, OH and PA may split but I think it’s more likely they go the same way.
On the flip side Scott Brown has 50% chance to win, Romney can’t win MA.
NV, Heller will win, even if Romney does not win the state.
CT, Linda M has a good chance to win, Romney will not win the state unless he’s winning a huge landslide.
And Hawaii, half a chance at a GOP upset with Linda Lingle in Obama’s safest state.
WV and WA are lost causes. I think I'll just drop them off the list. Maybe if the GOP takes the Senate, Manchin can be courted but they better not give him some kind of plum assignment in return. Just give him a seat at the table along with any other first time GOP Senate winners, period.

what is this talk of Minnesota if Amy Klobuchar will be re elected?
I have been singing same song since 1984.
Hope we do not the same garbage results again.
Thank the people for support of GOP President, but why are they such idiots?
Good ticket splitting helps when GOP Senator elected bad if Dem Sen elected.
